Some of my journalistic articles

Frisbee Tournament Windmill

Rogue Filler Certificates

2024 ~ For the Dutch newspaper Het NRC, together with four other journalists, I investigated an educational institution that issued rogue certificates for putting fillers with a mesogun. We talked with several students, models, competitors, experts and the inspection to give an account of the current situation of cosmetic treatments and certificates using the mesogun in the Netherlands.

Professionalization of TikTok

2021 ~ For the magazine of Dutch broadcaster VPRO, I wrote an article about the coming of age of TikTok. As TikTok was getting used by a broader audience, it was becoming more and more interesting for investors and advertisers, chaning the content on the platform. I spoke with TikTok expert Marieke Kuypers and the creator of the first daily soap on the platform, Joey Scheufler.
